We've seen plenty of comic-themed wedding cakes and even creators taking vows at Comic-con, but British couple Sharon and Neil Vaughan's costumed wedding packs perhaps the most superheroic punch for donning an entire wedding party in comic book and sci-fi costumes.

If you've been following my work for a while, you probably know that above almost everything else, I love comics where super-heroes fight animals, and none quite so much as when they throw down on nature's perfect killing machine: The Shark. So while Shark Week rages on, I've delved back through my archives to bring you The Seven Best Shark Fights In Comics!

After years of pairing its animated features starring A-list characters with shorts showcasing arguably lesser-known quantities, Warner Home Video is pulling a Pixar and packaging its less-lengthy tales into the "DC Showcase Original Shorts Collection" on November 9.

That superhero wedding must've hit Yahoo or AOL or something, becuase I found a link to it in my inbox from my mother with the note "your kind of wedding." I was going to write back and say that it wasn't becuase there were too many Marvel characters, but I knew that would go over her head. The best part about all that? The bride's costume cost under $200. So, there, take that ridiculously-overpriced bridal shops!! And that Rorshach costume is awesome.

And superheros vs. sharks...how the heck did I forget about J'onn battling a shark in Detective Comics? It wasn't on the list, but duh, it hit me afterwards. And they could swap out Batman for the Question vs. Robot Shark. Unless Robot Sharks don't count.
